Melissa, sorry for yet another MeSsy diagnosis in your family. :(  You sound like you're coping well as can be considered, and my hat's off to you.  Hopefully you can get onto fewer injections/week, too.

Big hugs to you!

Hi Melissa,

I'm sorry to hear all of the health problems your family suffers. I must say you have a lot on your plate. You certainly seem to have a good sense of humour which can only help.

It sounds like your daughter has looked into treatments for MS & has a positive attitude to boot. I hope it all goes well for her.

I think most of us kiss the floor at times yes. I like to call it random gravity checks lol. :-)

Take care of yourself.
Karry.

Melissa, that sure is stinky news - your family is that big exception to the MS links, isn't it?  It sounds like Ayla really knows how far treatment for MS has come - I hope she does well on the Copaxone ad she maintains her positive attitude.

hugs to you both, Laura

Melissa,

   Sounds like your family is a lot like mine. In my family a cousin on my dad's side, my dad, me, my brother and his daughter all have MS or in the process of a DX for MS. I think the worst thing about such a history is that you tend to worry about all of your children / grandchildren more, as I do with my daughter and her kids.

   I do hope things will go good for your daughter and you of course.
